The course is completely flooded in some places, but a playoff for the win was arranged for Sunday afternoon. Home player Dylan Naidoo won on the first playoff hole against Englishman Laurie Canter.

The duo were both 14 strokes under par after Saturday's third round, but the other players in the starting field did not get to swing their clubs on the final day.

The unknown Fredrik From becomes the best Swedish player in the shortened tournament with a shared 11th place on 11 strokes under par. This was From's only fifth start on the European Tour (now DP World tour), but the other four starts between 2019 and 2024 ended with missed qualifying limits for the 36-year-old, writes Swedish Golf.

The other Swedish players in the tournament missed the qualifying limit.
